Under Jolly Roger

Running Wild knows how to play havoc on the brain. What a great album with not one lame song starting from this albums opening tune Under Jolly Rodger. But my personal favorites are Raise Your Fist and Diamonds of the Black Chest.

perfect

Long live 80s metal

Even though they have made better albums it's still a solid album. The first song is my favorite. But the album as a whole is growing on me. Their 90s catalogue of work is their best.

this review is for the new 2017 double reissue cd of this 1987 metal classic, anyway as i said in the branded and exiled review this is where running wild went into a new then brand new scene that was popping up especially in germany and scandanavia at the time with the release of under jolly roger in early 1987, this was a really great record for its time but the band took on a whole new image wich was cool, as for there sound??? it did not change much at all, the lyrics and there attire did but not the music, the lyrics just now consisted of pirate topics and not the semi satanic and judas priest style lyrics gates to purgatory and branded consisted of, anyway as i said in the gates review i would give this 5 stars but i do not feel we really needed another whole bonus disc of this whole album to have re recorded versions of these songs from 1991 and 2003, i may be alone here but i dont understand why so many classic metal bands like my favorite metal band of all time the past 36 years SAXON have done this, the original tracks will always be what i cherish................ anyway nice double digi pack with powerful great loud remastering as well as a replica of the original map that came with the original german lp in 1987 as well as a good booklet that includes a huge essay by rockin rolph and malcom dome..........................from late 2016 as stated below NO LYRICS THOUGH & I AGREE A LIVE DVD FROM THIS ERA WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT again the second disc seems pointless to me

As a fan of their early work, they have stepped up here and created something very unique. The satanic work before was mediocre at best and quite silly in the vein of early Slayer (lyrically anyways) but very good. This is a major step forward. Pirate Metal is born! Great power metal here. This is a very rare album and worth the price. I own a cassette version but wish I had bought the vinyl. :( Great artwork.

This is the review for the 2017 re-mastered version. By now, everyone who looks this album up to buy the remaster knows all about it so I'll skip the review of the music and get right to the new version. The remaster sounds awesome. As it should. My speakers pound and the clarity is well, clear lol. Now, when you are trying to increase sales of cd's, bring your A game. Package it with liner notes, photos, maybe an extra DVD but most importantly, LYRICS! This comes with nice liner notes and the original map that came with the original release which is cool but NO LYRICS! That drives me nuts. Also, the "re-recorded 2003" version is NOT re-recorded! It's the exact same track as the original! They did that on Port Royal as well. Kinda ticked me off so that's why the 4 star rating. No lyrics and disappointed on the missing track.

Great Music! The bonus tracks on the second disk are not so great of reworks though!

Muy buena reedición , la portada y el vinil muy bien también su insert con las letras , el sonido muy bueno

TRES BON DISC

Everything correct.

Importante averlo. Inventa un marchio di fabbrica e genera un filone di genere che si tramanda ancora oggi. Fondamentale.
